Pronouced Dead @ 9:45pm

Romeo has been sick the last month. He had days where he seemed he was going to recover. Then tonight he suddenly became very ill and slow breathing. We spent almost 2 hours watching him die. As you can see, the funeral was very sad. Yeah, right! They were so giggly and kept asking me if we could go to the pet store tomorrow to buy guppy fish. Easy come, easy go I guess. Actually, Scott and I were emotional and teary eyed. After 5 months, we became attached to Romeo. He was a cool little fish...our first family pet.

Side note: Too bad he couldn't have died early in the day. The girls are going to have a hard time getting up tomorrow for school!

Beatles Rock Show - Girly Style

My friend Mary gave Carissa and Maia Beatle shirts last year. They are the coolest shirts. She got them from The Gap in the little girl section. How cute is that? I can't believe they carry shirts like this for little girls. It's never too early to get your kids into The Beatles! They had a fun time posing for pictures. Thanks again Mary!

Knott's Berry Farm - Oct. 24


We visited my parents this past weekend and went to Knott's Berry Farm. It was 95 degrees! The girls wore their Halloween costumes there. Knott's had a fun set-up for kids with Trick-or-Treating, crafts, Charlie Brown musical, and decorations. Thanks Mom and Dad! We had a fun visit! Can't wait to see you for Christmas!

First Field Trip & Bus Ride - Oct. 20

Carissa and Maia's kindergarten class had their first field trip. They went to Silveyville Pumpkin Farm in Dixon. Maia's favorite part of the field trip was riding the bus. Carissa liked the hayride the best. I took photos of them right after they climbed into their seat on the bus. They were so excited to sit next to their friends. They had it planned out days before the trip as to who was going to sit next to who and who was going to sit by the window. So cute! There's also a photo of their whole class. Their teacher, Mrs. Feins is in the middle/back. It was so nice to share this special day with them. I think the last time I was on a school bus was back in High School.

Simpson Family Leaving

We had fun visiting you guys last week. I don't think we will ever get use to your family being so far away in Utah. We have tears in our hearts! We are heartbroken! We will miss you! We look forward to seeing you in January!
